Located just 90 minutes from Los Angeles, it is the perfect getaway without the long drive. Visitors enjoy all the lake has to offer, from boating, water skiing, wakeboarding, and fishing. A large sandy swim beach attracts hours of play. Large trees and shelters provide cooling shade.

An aqueduct carries the water down through the Tehachapi Mountains to its southern California resting point at Pyramid Lake.
